GT17 too small?

sorry friend :(

lol now this is getting fun...

So I bring up a valid point about timing and you're answer is to leave it to the knock sensor?? Seriously? So since I have no idea what I'm talking about, maybe you can explain what the ECU does when it detects knock. Pull timing right? Right...but how much? Until it stops knocking? Do you know how, pun intended, retarded that sounds? The knock sensor is designed to pull timing based on IAT's, variances in octane, and a few other factors...not to make up for not having the proper values in the timing map to reference in relation to positive pressure.

I'm going to pretend that you didn't mention VVTi seeing how it has no relevance here. But maybe you can explain that one too.

you have no experience with forced induction in the 1nzfe.

i do

i know what works safely.



you're going on my ignore list, not worth my time answering your retarded arguments.

Cute. Guess I got under someone's skin lol

Anyone else venture to go toe to toe with me on the merits of boosting a car without proper engine management? I've got nothing else to do today.

[cali yaris]

Nope, not going to argue with an armchair expert with respect to the 1NZ-FE. I have other stuff to do today.

I've never recommended jumping into a turbo project without being clear on the risks to your motor and your wallet. You haven't read many of my posts if that is what you think.

[The Spectacle]

You guys talk about having experience with the 1nz-fe like its some kind of technical marvel. Its a 100hp motor for god sakes.

[Nexus1155]

And what experience do you have and on what cars pray tell? I'd love to hear your adventures

need i quote the line?

"you have failed me for the last time, captain"?

is that right? do I win something?

if i ever see you in person i will hand you a stale old cookie =P
that is the actual line from the scene, but i was refering to the "motivational" version "i find your lack of faith disturbing"


refering to

who apparently is oblivious to the amount of engineering that goes into a modern engine. Especially no credit is given to the software and computer engineering advances that allow these engines to act and adapt in such a versatile fashion.

and the fact that it makes some of the best hp/lb of ANY engine in any car in the world.

I do not know what is the big deal when someone wants to do "something out of the norm" or not buying some "kit",of course it would work with no intercooler and an after market piggy back or ecu. Just do bigger injectors.I have seen people here do that with Hyundais Brio and Mitsubishis mirages they even get pipes done cheap at a mufflershop. Doesn't look pretty all but it works. For a low boost aplication it will be just fine. budget turbo the butt dyno is happy and so is the wallet.

if i were to do it again, i'd trade engine management for a good solid water/meth injection setup. (on low boost)

Yeah after reading more on here (special thanks to Morgan for actually doing it), I probably would too. May still get around to it.

It's a Garrett. Comes off a Saab 9-3 and are pretty easy to come by.

worth every single penny! good for cooling and reduces knock, what could be better? HIGHLY recommended, especially if you don't end up using a piggy back or some type of other engine management!

(yes, you could probably tune it out if you can advance your timing, but I can't so instead I use it as a safety feature not for performance)
